<p>
<span class="emphasis"><em>(1)</em></span> To build HarfBuzz on Linux, you must first install the
development packages for FreeType, Cairo, and GLib. The exact
commands required for this step will vary depending on
the Linux distribution you use.
</p>
<p>
For example, on an Ubuntu or Debian system, you would run:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting"><span class="command"><strong>sudo apt install</strong></span> <span class="package">gcc g++ libfreetype6-dev libglib2.0-dev libcairo2-dev</span></pre>
<p>
On Fedora, RHEL, CentOS, or other Red-Hat–based systems, you would run:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting"><span class="command"><strong>sudo yum install</strong></span> <span class="package">gcc gcc-c++ freetype-devel glib2-devel cairo-devel</span></pre>
<p>
</p>
<p>
<span class="emphasis"><em>(2)</em></span> The next step depends on whether you
are building from the source in a downloaded release tarball or
from the source directly from the git repository.
</p>
<p>
<span class="emphasis"><em>(2)(a)</em></span> If you downloaded the HarfBuzz
source code in a tarball, you can now extract the source.
</p>
<p>
From a shell in the top-level directory of the extracted source
code, you can run <span class="command"><strong>meson build</strong></span> followed by
<span class="command"><strong>meson compile -C build</strong></span> as with any other standard package.
</p>
<p>
This should leave you with a shared
library in the <code class="filename">src/</code> directory, and a few
utility programs including <span class="command"><strong>hb-view</strong></span> and
<span class="command"><strong>hb-shape</strong></span> under the <code class="filename">util/</code>
directory.
</p>
<p>
<span class="emphasis"><em>(2)(b)</em></span> If you are building from the source in the HarfBuzz git
repository, rather than installing from a downloaded tarball
release, then you must install two more auxiliary tools before you
can build for the first time: <span class="package">pkg-config</span>.
</p>
<p>
On Ubuntu or Debian, run:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting"><span class="command"><strong>sudo apt-get install</strong></span> <span class="package">meson pkg-config gtk-doc-tools</span></pre>
<p>
On Fedora, RHEL, CentOS, run:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting"><span class="command"><strong>sudo yum install</strong></span> <span class="package">meson pkgconfig gtk-doc</span></pre>
<p>
</p>
<p>
With <span class="package">pkg-config</span> installed, you can now run
<span class="command"><strong>meson build</strong></span> then
<span class="command"><strong>meson compile -C build</strong></span> to build HarfBuzz.

<a class="ulink" href="https://mesonbuild.com/Getting-meson.html" target="_top">Install meson</a>
and run (from the console) <span class="command"><strong>meson build</strong></span> (by default
bundled dependencies are not built, <span class="command"><strong>--wrap-mode=default</strong></span>
overrides this), then <span class="command"><strong>meson compile -C build</strong></span> to
build HarfBuzz.

<a name="building.macos"></a>Building on macOS</h3></div></div></div>
<p>
There are two ways to build HarfBuzz on Mac systems: MacPorts
and Homebrew. The process is similar to the process used on a
Linux system.
</p>
<p>
<span class="emphasis"><em>(1)</em></span> You must first install the
development packages for FreeType, Cairo, and GLib. If you are
using MacPorts, you should run:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting"><span class="command"><strong>sudo port install</strong></span> <span class="package">freetype glib2 cairo</span></pre>
<p>
</p>
<p>
If you are using Homebrew, you should run:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting"><span class="command"><strong>brew install</strong></span> <span class="package">freetype glib cairo</span></pre>
<p>
</p>
<p>
<span class="emphasis"><em>(2)</em></span> The next step depends on whether you are building from the
source in a downloaded release tarball or from the source directly
from the git repository.
</p>
<p>
<span class="emphasis"><em>(2)(a)</em></span> If you are installing HarfBuzz
from a downloaded tarball release, extract the tarball and
open a Terminal in the extracted source-code directory. Run:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting"><span class="command"><strong>meson build</strong></span></pre>
<p>
followed by:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting"><span class="command"><strong>meson compile -C build</strong></span></pre>
<p>
to build HarfBuzz.
</p>
<p>
<span class="emphasis"><em>(2)(b)</em></span> Alternatively, if you are building
HarfBuzz from the source in the HarfBuzz git repository, then
you must install several built-time dependencies before
proceeding.
</p>
<p>If you are
using MacPorts, you should run:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting"><span class="command"><strong>sudo port install</strong></span> <span class="package">meson pkgconfig gtk-doc</span></pre>
<p>
to install the build dependencies.
</p>
<p>If you are using Homebrew, you should run:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting"><span class="command"><strong>brew install</strong></span> <span class="package">meson pkgconfig gtk-doc</span></pre>
<p>
Finally, you can run:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting"><span class="command"><strong>meson build</strong></span></pre>
<p>
</p>
<p>
<span class="emphasis"><em>(3)</em></span> You can now build HarfBuzz (on either
a MacPorts or a Homebrew system) by running:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting"><span class="command"><strong>meson build</strong></span></pre>
<p>
followed by:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting"><span class="command"><strong>meson compile -C build</strong></span></pre>
<p>
</p>
<p>
This should leave you with a shared
library in the <code class="filename">src/</code> directory, and a few
utility programs including <span class="command"><strong>hb-view</strong></span> and
<span class="command"><strong>hb-shape</strong></span> under the <code class="filename">util/</code>
directory.

The instructions in the "Building HarfBuzz" section will build
the source code under its default configuration. If needed,
the following additional configuration options are available.
